ers. The reverend gentleman visited the
whole four unfortunates, and his reception was
almost the same In every case.
Spies received him quietly and with q smile.
i have called on you, Mr. Spies" said the
clergyman. TO help you TO prepare for tho
away"
Spies smiled again. but shook his head slow.
ly. There is NO use praying for me, he said
in melancholy tone Il need them not you
should reserve your prayers for those who need
them."
The two mon then discussed matters of re.
ligion and social economy and Spies waxed
warm In his defense OF the doctrines Of social
ism a. 1t looked to him. The conversation was
long and somewhat rambling one, and finally
Mr.. Bolton arose. bade Spies adieu, and left
him.
When he had gone the latter turned to the
two deputies who kept watch over him, and
with short laugh exclaimed. Now, what can
you do with men like thatp One doesn't like to
insult them, and yet one finds it hard TO endure
their unlooked-for attentions"
Spies then waxed oelkative and aired his
opinion freely to his death watch, Deputy John
Is. Hartke. Speaking OF the anarchists trial.
he said that it's conduct and the finding were
without precedent in the history Of this coun-
try.
aWhy, don't you know" said he, that when
the jury brought in the verdict they wore all 20
